Rusk

Rusk is a modern, terminal-based text editor written in Rust. It is designed to be extensible and configurable, with a focus on performance and a minimal footprint.

Features

• Terminal-based UI: Rusk uses ratatui and crossterm to provide a rich user interface in the terminal.
• Syntax Highlighting: Highlighting is provided by tree-sitter, supporting a wide variety of languages.
• Plugin System: Rusk has a plugin system that uses wasmtime to run plugins in a sandboxed environment.
• Theming: The editor’s appearance can be customized through themes.
• Vim-like Keybindings: For those familiar with Vim, Rusk provides a similar modal editing experience.
• Command-line Interface: Rusk uses clap to provide a powerful and easy-to-use command-line interface.
